Elevate your home with the understated luxury of this mid-century masterpiece from Baker Furniture. Bench-made in Grand Rapids, Michigan, during the company's "Golden Era" (c. 1960s), this versatile table exemplifies the English Regency revival style with a sophisticated Hollywood Regency twist.

Crafted from rare, vibrant Rosewood veneers, the piece is defined by its elegant kidney-shaped silhouette. The top is framed by a distinctive solid brass gallery banding, a high-end architectural detail that provides a beautiful golden contrast to the deep, flamed wood grain. A single recessed center drawer seamlessly follows the apron's curve, featuring original brass hardware and an ornate key escutcheon.

The table stands on graceful trestle-style legs, anchored by a pierced, oval-motif H-stretcher. Unlike many accent tables, this piece is finished on all sides, allowing it to "float" as a chic petite writing desk in the center of a room or serve as a commanding console in a foyer or behind a sofa.

About the Maker: Baker Furniture
Since 1890, Baker Furniture has been the gold standard for American cabinetry. Based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Baker is world-renowned for its heritage collections. Collectors and designers seek out vintage Baker pieces for their old-world joinery and high-grade exotic veneers, making them heirloom-quality investments.

Dimensions
Width: 30 in
Height: 29 in
Depth: 16 in (at center curve) to 19 in (at widest points)

Condition
Good Original Vintage Condition – Structurally sound with smooth drawer operation. The rosewood veneers are tight with beautiful luster. Consistent with its nearly 60-year history, the tabletop shows minor "sunning" (slight lightening of pigment due to light exposure), which adds authentic vintage character.

Designer Styling Note
This piece is a "multitasker." Use it as a luxury vanity in a primary suite, a hallway console, or a laptop-sized writing desk in a home office nook. The brass banding pairs exquisitely with contemporary gold accents.

A rare opportunity to own a storied piece of Grand Rapids heritage. This Baker Rosewood Table offers the "soul" of a 19th-century antique with the structural integrity of 20th-century luxury manufacturing. See less
